PDLIM7 and lymphoma: However, given our recent studies showing that LMP1 is not required for EBV-induced (T1 B95.8 strain) lymphomas in CBH mice, we hypothesized that T2 EBV can form lymphomas in CBH mice as efficiently as T1 EBV, even though T2 EBV is at least partially deficient for transformation of B cells in vitro [30].
